As part of efforts to combat malnutrition, which remains a serious health issue, the government intends to disseminate information about the importance of varied nutrition and the necessity of including protein-rich foods in children's diets. Special attention will be paid to children attending approximately 1.4 million Anganwadi centers across the country.
This monthly nutritional awareness campaign, named 'Rashtriya Poshan Maah 2026', will start on September 9th from Varanasi.
